Thanks for uploading File:Olivia Somerlyn Parachute 2014.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 23:38, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited STX Entertainment, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tom McGrath. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Disclosing a COI isn't a carte blanche. Until someone has had time to verify that the content is suitable and verifiable, the {{ coi}} tag should remain. As the person with a COI, you really, really, shouldn't be removing it. Thanks SmartSE ( talk) 16:10, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
@ Smartse: I have revised Swade's entry to make it more concise and neutral - can you please take a look and remove the tags if you agree with me that they are no longer necessary? I see too many entries with notability tags undeservedly sitting there for years, so I don't feel comfortable just waiting around for another user to happen upon the entry and remove the tags. As I said above, we are talking about a filmmaker who has co-directed and starred in one feature for ESPN, is working on another, has directed or produced several short docs, and heads the video division for Rolling Stone, all of which have received coverage in well-known press. Thanks.-- Bernie44 ( talk) 15:38, 7 June 2015 (UTC)
Hi! Disclosing your COI isn't the only think you need to do as a COI editor. Among other several things, you need to be transparent to other editors. You could start by answering some simple questions at Talk:Perforce Software#Paid editing disclosure that I pinged at you some time ago.
You need to understand that while you reap the profits for writing the articles, you also induce a cost to the volunteer community of Wikipedia, to review, maintain and potentially fix up your work. Thus volunteers will expect you to be forthcoming and go the extra mile. -- intgr [talk] 09:01, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Josh Swade is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. SmartSE ( talk) 21:37, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for creating Morgan McCormick, Bernie44!
Wikipedia editor Sulfurboy just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

To reply, leave a comment on Sulfurboy's talk page.
Learn more about page curation.
I see that at Ben's Garden, you've once again removed {{ coi}}. Your disclosure on the talk page does not mean that there are no neutrality issues that need reviewing. Please do not do this again and if you would like a tag to be reviewed, post at WP:COIN and ask for uninvolved editors to take a look. Thanks SmartSE ( talk) 13:02, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:DVBBS logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 17:30, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Eric Boyko, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. KDS4444 Talk 00:26, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,

It seems like you have some interesting new sources, but on Wikipedia you cannot simply erase prior content in favour of more promotional items just because the company believes things are "irrelevant". I would suggest adding to the page, being careful to source your items properly, rather than trying to whitewash items, etc. Maybe follow WP:BRIGHTLINE for this one if you're having trouble, but I'm sure you can figure it out.

This is from a conversation I had a while ago on the article talk page of Eric Boyko. Since I realize other editors might want to know and it's probably a bad idea to keep important information like this on the article talk page, I thought it'd be good to put it here. If you don't want it here, feel free to remove it (it's your user page, you're allowed to remove almost everything). Just trying to help out by keeping relevant information easily accessible so others don't bother you about it.
